Series Info/Source: This is the 7th Volume in the Fullmetal Alchemist omnibus series. I bought a copy of this.

Story (5/5): The story is building up to its final arc, as two sides pit against one another in preparation for a final battle. The Elric brothers have to put aside the quest for their original bodies in order to stop the “Day of Reckoning” where Amestris will be turned into a giant alchemical death circle. Some huge secrets are revealed about the Elric brothers’ father. I continue to really enjoy this storyline, it’s complex but very well done. I love that there is a synopsis at the beginning of each book.

Characters (5/5): I love all the characters in this series and loved getting to learn more about Ed and Al’s dad in this book.

Setting (5/5): I continue to really love this world driven by alchemy and power. Excellent world-building in this whole series.

Writing/Drawing Style (5/5): This series continues to be beautifully drawn with amazing detail and easy to follow frames. Everything is also well written and easy to read as well as very funny and humorous at times.

Summary (5/5): Overall this continues to be an amazing manga series that I have enjoyed every bit of. I guess not much more to say than that, this book continues in the vein of the previous ones, it’s extremely well written and beautifully illustrated. My son and I both love this series. ( )
